Highly recommended! This exciting article on infrastructure construction during the Warring States Period is so top-notch! Archaeological engineer Cao Fu traveled through the Warring States Period by collapsing a tomb, holding engineering notes + fragments of Zhenduo, and also picked up the steam prototype of a traveler in his previous life - others relied on tactics to travel through time, but he preferred to use technology to blast through the troubled times!

He accepted the great Confucian scholars and split the Mohists. After restoring Cao Si to take charge of the Lu Kingdom, he opened up new technologies: steam trains transported troops thousands of miles, underground fire tanks crushed the Huns, and forced the unification of China's track gauge! In the end, he led his cavalry through the Western Regions and pacified the Northern Territory, and defeated the seven countries to name the country "China", allowing civilization to crush Eurasia two thousand years in advance!

I just want to say that this novel has great staying power! !! I may have been interested in other novels recently. First of all, the author's writing skills are quite profound and his cultural level is also first-rate. All the descriptions are detailed but the pictures seem to be appearing right in front of you, and the detailed descriptions are very detailed and clear. With regard to the description of the Suzhou-like scenery in the south of the Yangtze River and the subtle and delicate description of the emotions between the male and female protagonists, the male protagonist is so restrained and polite that he really wants to see his feelings for the female protagonist from his perspective. Compared with the direct expression of love from the heart, this kind of restrained and polite expression has endless aftertaste. A lot of love is hidden in the details, as well as the tea culture, big family rules, cultural inheritance, etiquette and ancestral systems mentioned. The author's description makes the readers feel like the scenes are clearly reflected in their minds. Reading the emotional content of this novel reminds me of the sentence: In the past, the weather changed very slowly, cars, horses, and mails were all slow, and there was only enough time to love one person in a lifetime! For the first time, I feel that reading novels is a kind of enjoyment of words. The beauty of Chinese diction is vividly displayed by the author, and the delicate emotions make people want to stop and have endless aftertaste. Very very very worth a lookへ

The most attractive thing about this novel is that it skillfully combines the rationality of science with the mystery of faith, creating a unique sense of humor and space for thinking. The protagonist uses thesis defense method to "preach" to believers and uses statistics to analyze "miracle" data. Every attempt to clarify the misunderstanding makes the misunderstanding deepen. Behind the laughter, the work also explores the profound topics of reason and faith, chance and necessity. Recommended to friends who like unique settings, light-hearted humor, and those who are interested in the intersection of science and humanity. I believe that this protagonist, who just wants to conduct experiments in peace but is forced to become the "boss", will bring you a lot of joy and inspiration.

The first refreshing article dedicated to deconstructing the routines of female celebrities. The protagonist travels to various outrageous female porn worlds (campus love, domineering presidents, etc.) And "corrects" the plot in the most brutal way. Although the killing is decisive, the setting of each world is different, and the irony and refreshing feeling are perfectly combined. The main theme of the third book is "violent excitement". The difference from other brainless novels is that every time the protagonist lifts the table, there is a reason. The plot combines many types of classic routines (similar to the dog-licking plot, the true and false young master, and the God of War and the Dragon King), all of which are handled in an anti-routine way, making it both familiar and fresh to read. The author also added funny elements to make the feeling more three-dimensional. The protagonist of the second book is set as a "pervert" who has no sense of pain. He reverse tortures the system in a horror game. The setting is very strange. Although it is a semi-invincible flow, each level is designed very ingeniously, and the protagonist's response is both unexpected and logical. The single female protagonist setting also makes the main story line more focused.
